In this episode of Chicago Techies Podcast, I sat down with Christine Devane, Co-Founder and CEO of Club Money, to talk about how she’s rethinking financial advice for a new generation.

We got into Christine’s own path into fintech, she walked us through her non-traditional background and how eventually she became a tech founder, which is a great reminder that there’s no single background or blueprint for building in tech.

We discussed how traditional financial planning leaves so many people behind especially younger professionals and anyone who doesn’t fit the “high net worth” mold most advisors are built around. Christine shared how Club Money is combining AI with real human expertise to make personalized financial guidance more accessible, collaborative, and honestly a lot less intimidating.

This episode is really about access to financial literacy, to better tools, and to the kind of guidance that shouldn’t only be available to wealthy people. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed trying to figure out money, investing, or financial planning on your own, this conversation will definitely resonate.
